Abstract

SBIR has completed development of the Large Format Resistive Array (LFRA) Infrared Scene Projector (IRSP) and shipped the first production system. Nine more systems are in production and will be shipped to several US Government customers on approximately six week centers. The commercial name of the LFRA IRSP is Mirage XL. System performance meets a broad range of program requirements and SBIR has been extremely successful in producing this ground breaking projector. Tests performed on System #1 reveal broad compliance to the specification and, in particular, outstanding emitter array performance. Key emitter requirements that have been met or exceeded include Operability, Maximum Apparent Temperature, and Array Uniformity. Key System specifications are: Large-format emitter array (1024x1024); High maximum apparent temperature (>700K); 200 Hz full-frame operation; 400 Hz static window mode (1024x512); Non Uniformity (uncorrected) <10%.
